We're hiring!

Often seen as modern engineering marvels, bridges link communities and commerce, with success ultimately hinging on how safely, quickly and economically they can be designed and constructed.

We’ve worked on some of the longest cable-supported structures in the world, on the owner and construction side of the equation, serving as lead designer, technical advisor, independent design-checker and public-private partnership (P3) advisor. We also have extensive experience with multi-span viaducts, arch bridges, swing bridges, rail and highway bridges and foot bridges.

Embarking on a major bridge project comes with questions that are bound to keep anyone up at night.

What is the structure’s function? To what standards should it be designed and operated? What are the aesthetic elements and visual impacts? How should it be financed? How should commercial, environmental and technical risks be dealt with? How should design liability be managed? And this is just a short list.

Let us help you answer those questions so you can rest easy.

Our 400-strong bridge team has played lead roles planning, procuring, designing and delivering some of the world's most prestigious and technically demanding structures, not to mention beautiful.

Cutting through mountains or boring deep underground to move people and freight to their destinations faster.
